I need minimum 4GB RAM and 150+GB Disk space
What is your budget for this, you're looking for XEN right?
This depends on where you're looking for the server but @AnthonySmith's Inception Hosting is great.
Also @CVPS_Kevin is a great choice (although I haven't touched their Xen servers at all).
bluevm
since buyvm is out of stock
Do you need Xen specifically?
Yep several of us have great KVM Pricing I can do those specs easy.
budget $30 per month. We have also few XEN from ace-host.net they offer $19.99 with 5 IPs
@azizbd: Do you need Xen specifically? because honestly there are tons of other providers with KVMs also available (or OpenVZ if its linux).
We don't want KVM we have few KVM but performance is very poor such as disk IO
That really depends on several factors. It's not purely the KVM has bad I/O.
Who's the provider? Are you using VirtIO disk drivers? KVM should have about the same performance as Xen.
Yeah I wouldn't cancel out all KVM just because one provider had horrible Disk I/O. Honestly @Nick_A's ramnode has great disk I/O and their KVMs are awesome (as a person who actually does own a KVM from them).
I mean even look at this KVM Serverbear benchmark.
http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2012/10/11/cQ08xKqwbyYgMXjP
my KVM provider are: hostigation, de-punkt.de and Prometeus.
Hm serverbear is having problem looking up benchmarks.
Anyways, from personal experience I've had a Hostigation KVM and it was perfectly fine disk I/O wise. Same with my Prometeus. I don't really know what to say besides for sorry you feel that way.
Out of curiosity did you set the hard drive as VirtIO or IDE?
recommend ramnode thru my experience.
Probably you dont have a SSD KVM, but even SAS2 ones pull 200+ in a bad day...
So, Xen can be better a tad on IO, but we havent had problems with KVM io so far. Not even a raid problem. May I have your IP for KVM to look how it goes ?
